Easter

It was one of those rainy cold Easters this year. The Easter Bunny actually came through the chimney and hid the eggs inside. A wonder he did not collide with Santa, considering how early in the year it is. Since Friday was no school we started by taking down the St. Patricks Day decorations and colored some eggs. On Saturday while Marlene was in German school, I took Amelia to a "Spring Egg Hunt" and she saw the "Spring Bunny". When the sun came out that afternoon we were able to take some pictures in the yard in their new Easter dresses. In the evening the girls helped me make marzipan decorations for our Easter Cake. On Sunday we started with a special breakfast and Easter bread. Then Marlene and I went to church. The Easter Bunny was late this year, we did not find any eggs until the afternoon, but the girls had a lot of fun looking.
